/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A legal procedure finished in Baku on Azeri Ariz
Halilov case, who is Georgian citizen and `was cooperating with
Armenian Secret Services against Azerbaijan.’ On the decision of Heavy
Crimes Court Ariz Halilov was sentenced to 14-year imprisonment. The
Public Relations Office of the National Security Ministry of
Azerbaijan reports that `Halilov was convicted guilty on the Penal
Code articles of espionage and preparing terror acts in an armed gang
of plotters. During the investigation investigators have found out
that resident of Sadakhlo of Marneuol district of Georgia Ariz Djamal
ogly Halilov was transporting goods from Georgia to Armenia and
back. During one of his visits to Armenia he asked patronage from
police major Karen Antonyan who serves in Armenian Home Office and
cooperates with the Secret Services of the country.
Halilov was regularly visiting Armenia and meeting with workers of
Secret Services of that country. According to the investigation,
Antonyan ordered Halilov to commit terror acts in Azerbaijan. Oil and
gas infrastructure was chosen as target. He was ordered to examine the
possibility to attack some oil objects and wells. After arriving in
Baku with this goal Halilov carried out examination in some oil
objects. Having gathered the necessary information he returned to
Georgia and departed for Armenia. During his next visit Halilov was
ordered to examine the ways of committing terror acts in Underground
and to check out the level of security in `Gyandjlik’ metro station.
Making sure that metro was strongly protected and realizing that it
was impossible to realize the plan, Halilov informed it to his
patronage in Armenia. The next task was to blast one of Baku’s trade
centers. But Halilov refused to do that and said that it would be
better to pass explosives to him directly in Baku. He was detained on
May 11, 2006 in the result of special operation carried out by Azeri
National Security Minister," IA Regnum reports.
